I guess it has to be an S70 but I haven't seen that spoiler anywhere. It's probably an aftermarket piece.

I dont plan on accepting the award if correct.

But geez I thought youd guys would like a bit of a test/quiz, I do.

Guy at work had a nice 1995 850 w/ a spoiler before he bought a benz.

With the help from cgtsx2004, the 850 would be my vote too now.

cgtsx2004, nice job

Sarlacc, don't forget to post the final result

Well, I didnt some else had put the Volvo 850 T5-R...


But correctly it is a 1997 Volvo 850R which is different from the T5-R so I "won" but I'm going to forfeit the prize to the other guy.

Thanks for everyones guesses and to cgtsx2004 for being the volvo master of wheels.

Here is an example of the car where you can clearly see the wing. Guess it is stock.

Actually, those 850R are quite the quick car, especially if you can find one of the rare manual versions. However, as an auto-X car, that's pretty questionable...

Well, he told us why he got rid of the modded WRX:





And here are most of his car:





And yes the spoiler is stock.
They only made 2500 a year and they came with some unique parts.

Damn, wtf happened to the WRX?

And I see he got the automatic...that's gonna suck for auto-X since there is no manual shift ability in this car...

Since he said it was a new car (2005) I wouldn’t have guessed a Volvo, cause most of them now have that curvy rear trunk.

BTW, I want about an hour of my time back that I waisted tracking this thread.
